RED January

RED (Rise Every Day) January is a global initiative that empowers people to move to boost their mood. Hannah Beecham MBE was inspired to launch RED January after witnessing the positive impact that regular physical activity had on her mum’s mental health during the winter. It’s time of year that can be challenging for us all, with evidence of lower activity levels, mood and energy. Since the launch back in 2014, the RED community has grown in support and strength, with hundreds of thousands of people joining to prioritise their own wellbeing and the wellbeing of their communities through fundraising, so far raising over £3.2 million. RED’s ambition is to make January a more positive and energising month of the year for everyone, with the RED communities fundraising efforts helping to drive real change in local communities year-round.
